This time it was Meng Tianze who came forward to talk to her because Jiang Qinyu was wearing women's clothes today.

They didn't go to the front door, but went to the back door of Zuixianju as they arrived early.

"I used to sell goods at a restaurant in the county, but I was always turned away when I went to the front door. Later, I heard someone say that if I went through the back door early and met a buyer from the restaurant, I might be able to sell my prey."

Meng Tianze was driving the car while talking to Jiang Qinyu.

Jiang Qinyu could understand it very well. Qianmen was a business and there were often customers there. It was really inappropriate to purchase food in front of customers.

As they were talking, they had already arrived at the back door of Zuixianju.

But it was just daybreak and there was no one at the back door.

Jiang Qinyu jumped out of the car and looked around the alley.

This alley is only one-third the width of the street in front, and can accommodate two carriages running side by side, so it is considered spacious.

Meng Tianze parked the carriage at a corner where it would not block the road.

Jiang Qinyu carried a small amount of wolf meat, wild boar meat and tiger meat, while Meng Tianze carried a shoulder pole with two whole sheep on it.

They waited quietly outside the back door of Zuixianju. After about a quarter of an hour, the back door of Zuixianju finally opened.

"Wow!" The person who opened the door was startled when he saw Jiang Qinyu and Meng Tianze, "What are you two doing?"

Meng Tianze stepped forward and said with an apologetic smile: "Brother, we hunted some wild game in the mountains, and wanted to ask if you would take it."

The middle-aged man who opened the door was the purchasing manager of Zuixianju. His surname was Chen. He yawned and asked, "What kind of game?"

Jiang Qinyu handed over the basket in her hand and said with a smile: "Brother, take a look, there are more than one kind."

"Wow, you guys are really good. You can even beat tigers and wild boars? What is this, oh oh, it's a wolf..." Manager Chen was quite knowledgeable and recognized it just by the smell.

Then he sniffed, "Why do I still smell the stench of sheep?"

"Brother, you are so awesome. What I carry in my burden are sheep, wild goats, each weighing about 200 pounds!" Meng Tianze praised as he lifted the cloth covering the frame.

Manager Chen became interested. "We in Yukang Prefecture like to eat mutton, but there aren't many people raising mutton around here. In recent years, fewer people have gone hunting in the mountains. You guys are lucky enough to have caught a good opportunity."

"How many do you have? I want them!"

As for goats, they could only kill two or three at a time, which was enough for Zuixianju to eat.

Upon hearing this, Meng Tianze was about to ask if he could sell all the forty-odd sheep to him, but was stopped by Jiang Qinyu.

Jiang Qinyu said with a smile, "Brother Steward, we're lucky and have caught quite a few. I wonder how much Zuixianju can take at most?"

"What? Are you still worried that I can't finish the food at Zuixianju?" Manager Chen raised his eyebrows, feeling quite competitive.

Jiang Qinyu still had a smile on her face. "A restaurant as big as Zuixianju can certainly accommodate us. Please tell me the amount."

"You young lady are really..." Seeing that Jiang Qinyu didn't give in, Manager Chen rolled up his sleeves and said, "Our Zuixianju is the top restaurant in the city. Even if you have ten or eight wild goats, we can take them all in!"

Jiang Qinyu immediately said, "Then ten. I wonder what the manager's offer is?"

Manager Chen stared at her in shock, "...You really have ten wild goats?"

Jiang Qinyu just smiled and said nothing.

Meng Tianze had already understood Jiang Qinyu's intention and quickly apologized with a smile, "Excuse me, big brother. We were lucky and hunted a few more."

If he said now that they had more than forty sheep, he might scare people away. It was his brother-in-law who was thoughtful.

Manager Chen had just spoken, and of course he couldn't take it back. After his expression changed several times, he gritted his teeth and nodded, "I want all ten! But I'll only pay by the whole head, not by the pound. Eighteen taels for each sheep that's at least 200 jin..."

"Deal!" Jiang Qinyu immediately responded.

They had inquired at Kangyue Inn last night and found out that the average price of a sheep in the city was around 18 taels of silver, which was 3 taels higher than that in Yongshan County.

I didn't expect that the manager of Zuixianju didn't even try to lower the price, but just offered the average price. Of course I had to accept such a good deal immediately.

Meng Tianze was so excited that he wanted to jump up on the spot, but he managed to keep calm and quickly ran back to the carriage to get the wild goat.

He and Jiang Qinyu's carriage was carrying a lot of things, a total of fifteen wild goats, so ten wild goats weighing more than two hundred kilograms were moved out in minutes.

"Brother Manager, the ten sheep you want are all here. Can you ask someone to come and check them out?" Jiang Qinyu said to him with a smile.

Manager Chen looked at the mutton spread out on the ground, his beard twitching constantly, and he subconsciously called a waiter to come over and count it.

He looked at Jiang Qinyu and Meng Tianze as if they were monsters, and couldn't understand how these two people could get so many wild goats?

"Manager Chen, we've finished counting. A total of two thousand three hundred and twenty-four kilograms of mutton." The waiter finished counting and came to report in confusion.

What's wrong with Manager Chen? He bought so much mutton at once. Should Zuixianju be renamed Yangxianju?

Jiang Qinyu extended her hand and said with a smile, "Manager Chen, thank you for your patronage. One hundred and eighty taels."

Manager Chen really wanted to go back on his word now, but the meat had already been counted. If he went back on his word, wouldn’t people look down on Zuixianju?

He had no choice but to take a deep breath, take out the banknotes and silver from his pocket and hand them over, "Ten sheep is really too many, otherwise you..."

Before he could finish his words, Jiang Qinyu had already taken away the banknotes and silver, and asked with a smile, "Do you still want wild boar meat, wolf meat, and tiger meat? The quantity is limited, first come, first served."

Manager Chen: “…”

He is a mature buyer for the restaurant. He has already bought ten wild goats. What's wrong with buying some other side dishes for the restaurant?

In the end, Jiang Qinyu and Meng Tianze sold ten sheep, a wolf, half a wild boar, and fifty kilograms of tiger meat at Zuixianju.

A wolf costs twenty-five taels of silver, a wild boar costs half a tael of silver, and tiger meat is sold by the pound, at two hundred coins per pound.

In other words, Jiang Qinyu and the others took away two hundred and thirty-five taels of silver from Zuixianju.

The more Manager Chen thought about it, the more regretful he felt. Just as he was about to call Jiang Qinyu and the others to stop, he saw Jiang Qinyu take the initiative to salute him.

"Manager Chen, you're so generous. To be honest, we're from a small village in Yongshan County. Most people nearby have fled famine, so we have no other choice but to try to make a living in the mountains. We are deeply grateful for your care today, and we've specially sent you a recipe. Please don't despise it."

Jiang Qinyu handed over the recipe for mutton that she had written last night. The recipe detailed the methods of cooking various muttons, including the origins of the seasonings. As long as one is willing and can find all the seasonings, there will be no problem selling the mutton.

Manager Chen took it and took a look. He was not a chef and didn't know what the recipe was like, but it was written in such detail that it must be true.

When he was about to call Jiang Qinyu again, he found that they had disappeared.
